Alternative/Rock/'Emo' bands, please?

Question

Can anyone give me some alternative/rock/emo bands that are preferably not popular? I've looked at other related questions, but have mostly found bands I already know. Plus, if you give me bands in the Arizona area, then you'll get extra props. (:
Here are some examples of stuff I listen to:

-Cobra Starship
-Fall Out Boy
-Motion City Soundtrack
-The Early November
-Boys Like Girls
-Shiny Toy Guns
-Paramore
-Goo Goo Dolls
-Young Love
-The Hush Sound

Thanks in advance. (:
